Procedure

4-Chlorobutyrophenone (1.8 g) and thiourea (0.8 g) is dissolved in ethanol (50 ml) and the solution is refluxed for 2 hours. To the mixture are added 1-methyl-5-chloro-1,2,3,4-tetrazole (1.2 g) and 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide (5 ml) and the mixture is further refluxed for 3 hours. Ethanol is distilled off and water is added to the residue. The mixture is extracted with chloroform. The chloroform solution is washed with water and saturated aqueous sodium chloride and dried over magnesium sulfate. Chloroform is distilled off. The residue is purified by column chromatography (Wakogel C-200, eluatn: chloroform) and the product is recrystallized from methanol-water to obtain 1-methyl-5-(3-benzoylpropyl)thio-1,2,3,4-tetrazole (0.3 g) as colorless needles, m.p. 57.5°-58° C.
